Working at school is still not a profession, butvocation. The adage “It is not the gods who burn the pots” does not seem to work here. Chelsea Haley, a young teacher, had no idea how she would feel when she left to teach. She got a really difficult and problematic student - Jerome Robinson. “Sometimes he behaved in such a way that I understood - that's it, I can't take it anymore. I can never work as a teacher, I have to drop everything and quit, this is not mine, ”- said Haley.Jeremy and his younger brother JamesFoto: @ shell_sea213 The girl was then only 22 years old. And she was not at all ready to rehabilitate difficult children. And Jeremy regularly brought her to hysterics - teenagers know how to be cruel. Especially when they are confident of their impunity. And Jeremy could be sure of that. Mother definitely wouldn't punish him. She did not pay any attention to him or his younger brother James at all. Most of the time the brothers spent with grandparents. The family lived in complete poverty. The boys' father died, the mother fell into depression and was unable to even take care of herself, let alone the children. Despite her despair, Chelsea somehow found the strength to get up again and go to school, try again to reach the boy who broke lessons, bullied other students and with which no teacher could get along. Two years later, Chelsea suddenly realized that the situation was not so bad. Jeremy in a strange way imbued her with confidence, became calmer and - unthinkable! - I started to make progress in school. “Once I woke up in the middle of the night from a strange dream. I saw God, and he told me that I should take Jeremy for myself. I thought: “What I won’t dream about” - and fell asleep again, ”laughs Chelsea.A photo: @ shell_sea213 In the morning she, as usual, went to work. Her contract with the school ended, she soon planned to move to another state. But then something unexpected happened. After classes in the hallway, Jeremy was waiting for her. “Can I live with you?” He asked bluntly. Chelsea was stunned. She remembered her dream and realized: this is fate. The teacher went home to Jeremy, talked to his mother. “You can leave,” said the woman. “But I want you to take my children with you.” Within two months, Chelsea was already the legal guardian of his student and his younger brother. They left for Georgia, where they have been living for two years. Everything is fine with them, and all his teachers are proud of Jeremy’s success at school. Some four years ago, the guy was on the verge of leaving the school, and now he is getting ready for school. “I am very proud of Jeremy,” says Chelsea. - And James recently came to my room, climbed onto my bed, pressed himself, kissed my forehead and said: "Mom, you are my best." Now she is sure: it was not for nothing. “I will not trade this happiness for my little family,” Chelsea laughs.
